"Less than ten Brecksville residents, with a common love of theatre and their community, laid the foundation in 1941 for today's organization.  Since then we have made our home, through the generosity of the Brecksville City governance, in the Old Town Hall, a historic building on the town square.  The building has been completely renovated as a theatrical facility with state-of-the art lighting and sound."  http://www.brecksvillelittletheatre.org. Truly a gem in our town of Brecksville, Ohio, the Little Theatre provides entertainment for everyone.  The productions are put on in Brecksville's Old Town Hall Building, a great testament to community's commitment to the arts.  The Old Town Hall Building, itself, is a registered historic landmark.  The Theater is a not-for-profit organizatio... 01/25/2009

One of the most amazing sights I have seen in a long time is that of a hawk circling intently for minutes before making its dive...no, it was the time when we were driving past the pond behind the library and the heron was languishing by the side...no, no, it was the time the doe and her four babies crossed the Metroparks road in front of us during a spring snowfall, no wait, I know,  it was the time we were all driving back from getting ice cream at Country Maid Ice Cream (which offers natural, homemade ice cream and deserves its own post) talking about how we have never seen a coyote and all of a sudden, in the far distance, we saw him scampering through an open field in the Cuyahoga Valley National Park, which adjoins the Brecksville Reservation. So what is the Brecksville Reservatio... 01/25/2009

We are REALTORS and residents of Brecksville, Ohio, which is located in Cuyahoga County.  I am writing this post to express my sincere appreciation for the incredible public library system we are so fortunate to have for all of our residents-young and old.  The library system is not just 28 buildings scattered hither and yon throughout the county.  It is a true system that provides each community area the opportunity to educate, gather, inform, listen, create, and imagine. Just this past Holiday season, our daughter volunteered at the Brecksville Library helping children create their very own gingerbread houses.  The community room was a flurry of activity with kids seated at tables full of bowls of graham crackers, assorted candies, and thick, sweet, vanilla icing-a true delight for an... 01/25/2009

There is no question that it has been a challenging year in real estate, and 2009 will be plagued with many of the same problems i.e. short sales, foreclosures, financing difficulties , and appraisals that fall short of the purchase price, BUT HOMES DID SELL IN 2008 AND THEY WILL SELL IN 2009. Sellers must make pricing their home CORRECTLY a top priority. In 2008, we saw asking prices vary widely as it was difficult for many sellers to accept the downturn in the market. THE HOMES THAT SOLD WERE THE ONES WITH REALISTIC PRICES. THE FACTS THAT MATTER WHEN PRICING YOUR HOME ARE THE SELLING PRICES OF OTHER HOMES IN YOUR AREA, followed by condition and location.

Sometime in October of 2005 I had the good fortune of crossing paths with Judy Darwal. I had a few transactions with Judy in the past and had a great deal of respect for her.  In dealing with Judy, she was easy to work with, professional, courteous and best of all WORKED HER END OF THE DEAL! So on this day in October she attended a broker's open house that I was hosting.  She mentioned to me that she and her husband Jim had just purchased a RE/MAX franchise and thought I would be a nice addition. I must admit, Jim called me for 2 weeks until I finally agreed to meet with them. (Change is hard and my time was being occupied by a couple of deals that were in self destruct mode!) I did meet with them and after I joined I told Jim and Judy that during the initial meeting, in my mind I was t... 12/07/2008
